Collective action problems: Difference between revisions

A number of authors have suggested possible mechanisms for overcoming collective actions problems in a YIMBY context. David Schleicher has suggested Tax Increment Local Transfers, or TILTs⁴⁵ and imposing binding ‘zoning budgets’.⁶ In a UK context, the London YIMBY group has suggested allowing single streets to vote to give themselves additional development rights.⁷ London YIMBY has also [https://www.londonyimby.org/blog/2017/7/17/how-to-use-air-rights-to-improve-us-cities suggested that allocating air rights (Transferable Development Rights, or TDRs) to all registered voters], rather than just homeowners, could be a way to overcome collective action problems.
